Ingredients for 3 people

3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 tablespoon wine vinegar and sherry vinegar
Salt, wild pepper from Madagascar – A few slices of bread
Once all these ingredients are gathered, you can put on your apron.
Divide the large ripe avocado in half, pit it, cut the flesh into strips and lemon them to prevent it from oxidizing and blackening. “Undress” the pink grapefruit quarters while removing the white skins.
Do the same with the 2 tomatoes.
Cook the egg for 8 minutes so that it is just as hard as possible and in another saucepan cook the white rice.
Clean and pat dry the fresh mint leaves.
Serve the avocado slices, grapefruit and tomato flesh on the plate, rice in an upturned ramekin or, using a cookie cutter, the hard-boiled egg cut into quarters.
Place the plates in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
When ready to serve, throw in a dash of olive oil with a few drops of wine vinegar and sherry, salt, freshly ground pepper and sprinkle with a little mint leaves.
Enjoy the exotic fresh salad with avocado and grapefruit very cold accompanied by toasted bread.
Depending on the season and the arrival, you can add some beautiful pink shrimp from Madagascar or mangrove crab crumbs from Andilana de Nosy Be.
